Pet Not Attacking?

[Hateborne]

Sorry to bother you ladies/gents with more random questions, but I have pets not being pets.

I have duplicated a pet that already existed, scaled up stats, and then adjusted the actual spell to summon the newly scaled pet. The new pet will not attack, follow, or respond.

I have set the pet to controllable and the pets.npcID matches npc_types.id for the pet.

Is there any special catch(es) that I am unaware of with giving pets? The pet is a cleric pet. Is there a need for special AA to allow the pet to function?
